Explore a world-class rare isotope laboratory where nuclei are smashed into a target at half the speed of light! Our new 1,500-foot-long linear accelerator and the research spaces inside MSU’s Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) will be revealed with images, 3D models, and animations projected on the dome of the planetarium. Our “virtual tour” takes you to many locations that would normally be inaccessible!
